Tell me about Winter Hill

im sure ive been close to this area earlier last year. my son took me over Blackstone edge moor and we dropped down to a motorway bridge and underneath us was the M62, then from there we went downhill and back over to Hollingworth Lake. so passing over the motorway bridge im guessing there must be another way up to the top of winter hill....
anyone please ?

Its quite a long way from Hollingworth to Winter Hill (prob at least 10-15 miles). You can probably see it from that area though - just look for the massive aerial on top of the hill with red lights on it.

this windy hill also has a huge tv mast on it... you can see it from the M62.

Yep, Windy Hill is the hill with the gigantic mast on it right next to the M62 where it goes over the tops, just above Hollingworth Lake. Winter Hill has a mast on it, but it's miles and miles away from Hollingworth Lake, near Bolton.
